The
Virgo Constellation Herald Of Spring

The
Virgo constellation rises to the heavens in May, during late Spring.
Bringing with her warmth, extra light and rains helping crops grow
and flourish. The goddess Demeter is truly happy to have her child
back.

Known
as Persephone, daughter of Zeus and Demeter, she was taken by Hades
Lord of the Underworld down to Tartarus. Demeter was distraught over
the loss of her child and wouldn't allow seeds to germinate and grow.

This
meant no crops. Without crops the people and their animals would starve.

Zeus intervened and decided that
Persephone would spend time between both worlds.

Persephone
descends into the underworld from mid-December, bringing cold, dark,
winter days until her return mid-March.

Also
known as Astraea the goddess of justice. In this role she carries the
scales of justice represented by the Libra constellation.
